Good morning
Plus 30 points no problem, but …………….
Yes there is a but: If I need to change the discs, why not check or change the bellows.
At least that's what I looked at and bingo!!!
I won, the bellows of the guides are HS (4/4) and that is why the guides were guiding badly, the pads were pressing badly, the wear indicators were wearing badly. Fortunately my ears “were not hearing badly” and that was where the operation was needed.
In your kit I don't see these bellows, so if you could give me the references to add I won't throw away my extra ordinary machine.
There you go, I had a lot of fun, I'll send you back to work, …..
Thanks for the whistles
Sincerely
Good morning,
I don't have the exact references but if you know the brand of your braking system just go to the guide sleeve set, brake caliper section on Oscaro and you will have the appropriate parts.

Step 7 I just marked it, zoom in on the photo you will see that it is a Bendix assembly.

What is the mounting type? Bosch or Lucas?
I have the same assembly on my car and I don't know which one to choose from the parts list
THANKS
